Alum Carolyn Binder is Voice of PMN Kalamazoo

Carolyn Binder…former voice of the Bronco Insider.

Hello!

I am a 2009 graduate of the College of Arts and Sciences. I double majored in film, video and media studies and social psychology. While at WMU I served as the director of Webcasting for the Bronco Insider in the Division of Intercollegiate Athletics, as well as a color commentator for WMU Women’s Basketball. My senior year, I served as a news intern at 102.1 FM WMUK.

Here’s what I’ve been up to since my time at WMU:

Upon graduating, I spent a year as a broadcast intern at ESPN 100.9 FM in Midland Mich., where I was responsible for board operation, in-studio production, conducting interviews, updating content on air and online, and leading broadcast segments.

I am now the play-by-play voice of Public Media Network in Kalamazoo. My main priorities are covering high school football, basketball and soccer. I also cover community softball tournament games and full tournament coverage of the USTA National Championships in Kalamazoo, which is now in its 69th year at K College and WMU. PMN has hosted wall to wall coverage for the past two decades.

I am also gaining lots of production experience at WKZO, where I am proud to assist in production of WMU athletics on the Bronco Radio Network and any other task that is needed to get the job done!
